CHP has totally upgraded their system. They use 39,42,44, and 45MHZ inputs/outputs. Most dispatch comm centers, but not up here in extreme NorCal, repeat the mobiles on
the main base dispatch channel.  Makes it easier to listen to both sides.

They run their extenders in the 700MHZ range using P25 digital. They were supposed to upgrade the whole system to a statewide 700MHZ P25 digital system covering
the whole state.  But, no money $$$.  Imagine that!

No more extenders on the old 154.905 freq (was a poor man's radar radar detector!) ;-)

When I hear statewide CHP comms, or other state low band Highway Patrol, I know
that something is happening on six...

The California Highway Patrol holds on to their 47 MHz frequencies for the same

42 MHz.  Augmented by a whole system of VHF and UHF portables working
through in-car repeaters into and out of the 42 MHz network.
